The Buhari‘s led government have 6 women as minister out of 36, while five are from North and one from south which is Minister of Finance Kemi Adeosun.
The immediate past government of ex-President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan was by far better than this administration, because the administration Jonathan have more than 10 ministers in his cabinet.
